Abstract:Dye removal from wastewater is a challenge to be addressed, since these cause environmental problems, affecting the development of life in different systems. Nonetheless, most of the dyes are strongly resistant to the usual treatment of conventional wastewater plants, and, therefore, cost-effective and efficient methodologies for their removal are needed. Against this background, this research proposes the formation of a hydrogel from the functionalization of the lignocellulosic material from the banana peel w… Show more
